Windows 7: How can I improve my frames per second in games like Runes of Magic?

I don't want to tone down the graphics, because Runes of Magic is ugly on lowest graphics, but that's the only way I can run the game without lag. I want to be able to atleast play on medium. I've used Gamebooster, and tried choosing the "adjust for best performance" option in "Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows". But it's just not enough. I have 4GBs of ram, it says 3.84GBs unusable. Any way I can fix that or boost my RAM for this? Thanks.

2 options, turn down the graphics or get a better GPU and (possibly) CPU.

Without your system specs its difficult to say exactly what is causing your lag, but its definitely one of the two.

You can have the best CPU in the world, but integrated graphics will still make everything look crap or lag.

Conversely you can have the best GPU in the world, but if your CPU isn't up to much then that will hold your system back.

Oh and disabling Aero won't affect games if they are playing full screen, Windows isn't stupid enough to still be rendering Aero under the game.

Also, keep in mind RoM is a MMO.
Meaning, sometimes performance issues may not actually your system at all, but on a server end or server lag.
Theres simply nothing you can do about about server lag.

Cap Frames Per Second when playing gamesHello sometimes when i play a game like Guild Wars my frames per second can rise up to 200-250
This is way to much and i dont like the video card to work this hard if he doesn't have to.
Is there a program that CAPS my fps to like 30-40 so my video card doesn't make this much of a noice ?...

Aero runes better in Vista than in 7 build 7100.So I have been beta testing Win7 build 7000 on my desktop. Now I have my laptop with vista installed and a spare 15GB partition. So I had a spare beta key, so I got Windows 7 build 7100. I love it, expect, it seems like aero runs slower, so I did a the WEI thing on both OSs, and I got a 3.5...
